  • pie crust made from Graham crackers

Instructions:

  • Heat the oven to 160°C.
  • In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Add eggs one at a time. Mix to incorporate each egg in the cream cheese.
  • Pour everything into the crust.
  • Bake 40 minutes or until the cake is firm.
  • Let cool.
  • Refrigerate for three hours before serving.

Lemon Curd

  • 2 lemons
  • 225 grams of white sugar
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 60 grams of butter

Instructions:

  • Put the butter, sugar and lemon juice into a bowl.
  • Sit the bowl over a pan of simmering water and cook until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool a little.
  • Add well-beaten egg yolks.
  • Return to heat and cook, stirring constantly.
